Glass Bottle Mockup Templates

Glass bottles carry a particular weight in product perception. A wine in a glass bottle reads differently from a wine in a bag-in-box. A skincare serum in glass feels more premium than the same formula in plastic. That material association works in the designer's favor when presenting packaging concepts - a glass bottle mockup immediately adds to the perceived product quality.

Included formats: wine bottles (Bordeaux, Burgundy, Alsace shapes), spirits bottles (flask, decanter, square), beer bottles (longneck, stout, bomber), cosmetic bottles (pump, spray, dropper), sauce and oil bottles, and generic beverage bottles. Glass colors include clear, green, amber, cobalt blue, and frosted matte. Cap and closure types range from cork and screw cap to crown cap, swing-top, and pump dispensers.

The glass rendering is what separates premium bottle mockups from basic ones. Real glass has internal reflections, light caustics, subtle green or amber tinting, and varying transparency depending on the glass thickness. These templates capture those optical properties through multiple layered effects - refraction layer, reflection highlights, glass tint, and shadow mapping all work together to produce a convincing glass surface.

Label editing uses smart objects with cylindrical wrapping. The mockup applies accurate curvature to front labels, back labels, and neck labels. On clear glass bottles, the label is visible through the back wall of the glass with appropriate transparency and distortion - a detail that only real glass photography and premium mockups produce.

Liquid contents are handled through a dedicated layer:

• Red wine, white wine, rosé (adjustable color)
• Amber beer, dark stout, pale ale
• Clear spirits (vodka, gin), amber spirits (whiskey, brandy)
• Colored juices, oils, vinegars
• Cosmetic liquids (transparent, milky, golden)

The liquid meniscus line, fill level, and light interaction with the contents are all editable. Show a bottle half-full or completely filled. Change the liquid color from amber whiskey to clear gin without switching templates.

Glass reflections and label detail require higher resolution than opaque packaging to maintain visual fidelity. Close-up crops showing cork texture, wax seal details, and embossed glass surfaces benefit from this generous pixel count.

Wine and spirits label designers, craft brewery branding teams, cosmetic packaging designers, and artisan food producers (olive oil, vinegar, hot sauce) make up much of the audience. Beverage startups also rely on these for developing product line visuals for investor decks and crowdfunding campaigns.

What glass bottle shapes are available?

Wine bottles (Bordeaux, Burgundy, Alsace), spirits (flask, decanter, square), beer (longneck, stout, bomber), cosmetic (pump, spray, dropper), and sauce/oil bottles. Glass colors include clear, green, amber, cobalt, and frosted.

Does the glass look realistic with reflections?

Templates use multiple layered effects - refraction, reflection highlights, glass tinting, and shadow mapping - to simulate real glass optical properties. Labels are visible through the back glass wall with appropriate transparency.

Can I change the liquid color and fill level?

Liquid color, opacity, and fill level are all on separate adjustable layers. You can switch from red wine to white wine, or from amber whiskey to clear gin, without changing the bottle template. The meniscus line adjusts with the fill level.

What cap and closure types are included?

Cork, screw cap, crown cap (beer), swing-top, pump dispenser, spray nozzle, and dropper. Cap material finish - metal, wood, plastic - is editable on most templates with separate color adjustment layers.
